Secure large file sharing

Secure large file sharing. Keep control of every handoff.

CAD assemblies, high resolution media, software packages and technical archives quickly outgrow email. My MX Data lets organizations send large files securely without arbitrary file size limits, public download links or a trail that disappears after delivery.

Secure large file sharing should not force a weaker process.

A delivery becomes awkward when teams have to compress the source, split an archive into parts or move to an unfamiliar consumer tool. That adds handling, creates extra copies and makes it harder to explain who received the complete package.

MX gives large files the same controlled route as every other sensitive exchange. If the payload is substantial, the security model does not need to shrink around it.

01

Keep the package intact

Send complete folder structures, design models, video masters and datasets without dividing the delivery into several disconnected messages.

02

Address people, not open links

Give approved recipients access through named accounts instead of relying on a URL that can be copied beyond its intended audience.

03

Retain evidence after delivery

Review uploads, access, downloads, comments and transaction history. The record remains useful when a client, supplier or auditor asks what happened.

One controlled route

From finished work to confirmed receipt.

MX is built for the handoff between organizations. It can sit alongside the storage and authoring systems your teams already use, then provide stronger control when the approved package needs to leave your environment.

01

Prepare

Select the complete release, dataset or archive. There is no need to reduce quality simply to satisfy an attachment limit.

02

Authorize

Choose named recipients, apply relevant permissions and set access conditions for this exchange.

03

Transfer

Send the payload through an encrypted business exchange rather than an unrestricted public link.

04

Confirm

See recipient activity, download status and the transaction history without chasing for a separate confirmation.

Built for cumbersome payloads

The files that usually trigger workarounds can stay in one exchange.

Different teams call them different things: releases, packs, models, rushes, exports or submissions. The shared problem is weight, sensitivity and the need to keep the delivery understandable.

Engineering and automotive

Move design data without dismantling the project structure.

CAD files, large assemblies, product data, technical drawings and software packages can move between OEMs, suppliers and engineering partners through one approved route. For a real example, see how OP Mobility replaced fragmented FTP transfers.

Media and creative production

Transfer high resolution footage, artwork, photography and finished masters without compressing away the quality the client is paying to receive.

Data, software and project archives

Release technical datasets, software builds and complete document packs while keeping version, recipient and delivery activity connected.

Protection that scales with the payload

File size should not decide how much evidence you retain.

MX combines AES 256 encryption, named recipient access, permissions and detailed audit trails. Relevant plans can also use the patented ASR methodology, which anonymizes data, separates it into protected shards and restores it for an authorized recipient.

These controls can support wider governance and compliance work, but the platform does not make an organization compliant by itself. Configuration, policies, lawful processing, staff behavior and endpoint security still matter.

Choose the route by purpose

Large file transfer is not the same job as storage or live editing.

General cloud platforms remain useful for document creation, synchronization and long term storage. MX is designed for controlled external handoffs where the sender needs identity, access conditions and evidence around delivery.

Practical questions

Large file sharing, without vague promises.

A few details matter before a team changes how it delivers heavy files.

For plan questions, compare Business Pro, Business Premium and Enterprise.

MX is designed to support transfers without an arbitrary file size restriction. That makes it suitable for CAD files, technical datasets, media, software packages and large document sets.

Actual transfer performance still depends on the sender's connection, browser, network controls and the receiving environment.

Use the real file

Test the transfer that currently causes your team the most trouble.

Choose a genuine dataset, add the intended recipient and see how the complete handoff looks from upload to recorded activity.

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about Large File Sharing.

How can businesses securely share files that are too large for email?

Yes. MX is designed to support very large files and complete datasets without arbitrary file-size restrictions. This is useful for engineering, media, software and project teams that need to move complete working packages without breaking the process apart.

That can include CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets, reducing the need to split an exchange across multiple uploads or move it to another tool simply because the file is large. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX security and administration features.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management. Keeping the complete package in one controlled exchange can reduce workarounds such as compression, fragmented uploads or use of an unapproved temporary transfer tool.

Does My MX Data impose arbitrary file-size restrictions on large-file transfers?

Yes. MX is designed to support very large files and complete datasets without arbitrary file-size restrictions. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX feature set. That gives the team a more defensible record of the handoff.

That can include CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets, reducing the need to split an exchange across multiple uploads or move it to another tool simply because the file is large. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management.

What types of large business files can be exchanged through MX?

MX can support exchanges involving CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets. A clear process also makes it easier to explain the exchange later to a colleague, auditor or security reviewer who was not involved when the file was sent.

The value is less about the file extension and more about whether the information needs controlled access, a dependable handoff and evidence of what happened afterwards. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management.

Do large files need to be compressed or split into multiple transfers before sending?

Yes. MX is designed to support very large files and complete datasets without arbitrary file-size restrictions. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX security and administration features.

That can include CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets, reducing the need to split an exchange across multiple uploads or move it to another tool simply because the file is large. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management.

How can businesses restrict a large file to named or authorized recipients?

My MX Data can restrict an exchange to named or authorized recipients rather than relying on an unrestricted public link. Different transactions can carry different conditions, so routine material does not need to be handled exactly like highly sensitive information.

Recipient selection, permissions, multi-factor authentication and expiry settings can then be combined to shape who can reach the information and for how long. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX feature set.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management. The sender retains a clearer connection between the file, the intended recipient and the access window applied to that exchange.

Can senders track whether a large file has been accessed or downloaded?

Yes. MX is designed to support very large files and complete datasets without arbitrary file-size restrictions. Keeping the complete package in one controlled exchange can reduce workarounds such as compression, fragmented uploads or use of an unapproved temporary transfer tool.

That can include CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets, reducing the need to split an exchange across multiple uploads or move it to another tool simply because the file is large. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see file-exchange controls.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management. This is useful for engineering, media, software and project teams that need to move complete working packages without breaking the process apart.

Can large-file access expire or be subject to download conditions?

Yes. MX supports expiry settings and configurable access conditions, helping teams avoid leaving sensitive files available indefinitely after the business purpose has passed. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX security and administration features.

Recipient permissions and download conditions can add further control where the relevant workflow supports them. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management. That gives the team a more defensible record of the handoff.

Can MX distribute a current large file or software package to multiple recipients while tracking uptake?

Yes. MX is designed to support very large files and complete datasets without arbitrary file-size restrictions. Keeping the complete package in one controlled exchange can reduce workarounds such as compression, fragmented uploads or use of an unapproved temporary transfer tool.

That can include CAD files, high-resolution media, software packages and large datasets, reducing the need to split an exchange across multiple uploads or move it to another tool simply because the file is large. For a broader view of the related MX controls, see MX feature set.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is a useful external benchmark for connecting file-exchange controls with broader cybersecurity risk management. The same recipient, authentication, permission and activity controls can remain around the transfer even when the payload is technically large.
